I may be ahead of you in the grumpy line. Grocery store was crowded and noisy. A woman stands behind me in the check out line - she is right behind me, so close i could have take her out with elbow jab to her face. She's talking loudly on her cell phone. I turn around a couple of times giving her the stink eye, but she didn't take the hint - take the call outside. Geeze, no consideration or decorum.
This whole year has been one big chunk out me after another and this was no exception. Perhaps I was meant to learn something that I just can't see yet. What is the Dr. Seuss saying? "You are big enough and strong enough and ..." That would seem to be the appropriate lesson for me to learn at this stage. But the bigger picture is yet for me to see ...
For a reason a season or a lifetime.. each person that enters our life is for a purpose and if it only lasted a short time you have to look back take what it gave you. Did you grow, were you inspired, did you take something from it to allow yourself to move forward? I believe in fate and it seems there was great value even if it didn't last forever.
Never have fear to welcome new enlightened hearts into your journey.
If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you then it was meant to be, if not then let it go. It was not meant be anything more than a moment in a lifetime.
